Anyone with half a brain could see it. Freya used to be head over heels for Kieran, and now? She couldn''t stand the sight of him. Sending flowers at this point? She''d toss them straight into the trash. Kieran rushed it. "Why all the fuss? Just do as told. Do you not want to be my executive assistant anymore?"


    "I''m on it!" Jarrett quickly left the office.


    Thirty minutester, Jarrett knocked on the Dawson family''s front door.


    When Freya opened the door, she saw a massive bouquet of roses.


    Her eyelids twitched as she asked, "Jarrett, what''s this all about?"


    Jarrett said, "This is from Mr. Sutton, Ms. Dawson. He''s sorry about what happened. He was a bit impulsive..."


    Freya had mmed the door shut before Jarrett could finish.


    Seeing this, Jarrett quickly said, "Ms. Dawson, Mr. Sutton is really sorry, and he even arranged for us to give you a ride home! Please don''t make our job harder. We''re just doing what we''re told! Ms. Dawson!" Freya ignored Jarrett''s frantic pleas at the door.


    Instead, Johanna ran down from upstairs, pointing at Freya''s nose. "Youngdy, what are you thinking? You can''t just snub Mr. Sutton''s people!"


    Johanna was desperate. Lnd had crossed the Ramsey family, and clinging to Kieran was their only hope. Thest thing she wanted was to offend Kieran.


    With a smile, Johanna opened the door wide and said to Jarrett, "Secretary Jarrett, Freya''s being shy. Don''t worry. I''ll have here with you!"


    Listening to Johanna''s shrewd words, Freya couldn''t help butugh. Johanna still owed her a considerable sum, yet she dared to offer Freya up to the Sutton family to plea on behalf of Lnd. She was delusional. "Johanna, since when do you call the shots in the Dawson family?"


    "Freya, I''m only thinking of what''s best for you." Johanna approached, saying, "I''m working on getting the pearl earrings and the money. Just stay at Mr. Sutton''s for a few days. Your brother''s in a tough spot, hospitalized, and we don''t even know if he''ll keep his leg. What will be of us if you don''t go?" As Johanna spoke, she began to tear up.


    Watching Johanna''s Oscar-level performance, Freya couldn''t help butugh. So, all this was just about using her to score points with Kieran. Yet Johanna was hamming it up like this. "Fine, for your sake, Johanna, I''ll go. But the repayment schedule needs to change. Not seven days, but three."


    Hearing Freya shorten the deadline,


    Johanna clenched her teeth and


    agreed "Don''t worry. As long as you go to the Sutton family, even if have to sell my blood, I''ll get you the money within three days!"


    "That''s settled then. I''ll revise the contract and send it over. Three days to repay, and don''t forget about my mother''s pearl earrings. You better not default." With that, her smile twitching, Johanna agreed, "Okay, okay."


    Freya smiled and walked outside.


    Jarrett was surprised that Johanna persuaded Freya with just a few words and said, "Ms. Dawson, this way, please."


    "This time, Kieran won''t be throwing my stuff out, will he?"


    "Of course, no!"


    "Good."


    Freya got into the car.


    Inside the Dawson family, worried about the repayment, Johanna immediately called Audrey.


    Once the call connected, Johanna


    said, "Mrs. Sutton, Freya has realized


    her mistake. But the Dawson


    het


    family''s been having a hard timetely. was wondering if we could


    borrow some money from youContent held by N?velDrama.Org.
